Mendelssohn was great musician and it
was not necessary for him to resort to
festival occurred an incident which still
lives in the memory of German musicians
as the 'Mendelssohnsche Els Geschichte'-
the Mendelssohn + sharp story. You
may explain it to suit yourselves. The
orchestra was n large one-twenty-six
violins headed by Ferdinand David-and
the chorus about 500 voices. At the last
general rehearsal for st. Paul in the
chorus, 20 great is the depth Mendels-
sohn suddenly raped on his desk to COM
